Create an account for someone else

PreviousFirebase Auth BackendNextUpdate another user's profile info

Last updated 11 months ago

This action allows you to create a user for someone else, by running a firebase-admin instance on Bubble's backend.


Inputs and Settings

Email

The email of the user you want to create.

No email will be sent to the user. If you want to do so, you'll have to confire this login yourself.

Password

The new user's password.

User UID

Optionally, you can define the new user's ID. This option is only available for backend operations, since it can't be customized for the usual front-end "sign the user up" operation.

Profile and Other User Data

Copy profile data into Firestore collection

If you check this option, the user's profile data will be stored not only on the user, from the Firebase Authentication service, but also on the user's document.

It is recommended to left it checked, since it gives more flexibility while accessing this information, as well as utilizing it on queries and filters for users.

Display Name

The profile name of the user, associated with the account.

Photo URL

The URL of the profile picture for the user. This profile picture is stored directly on Firebase Authentication, and not on Firebase Storage.

Phone Number (E.164 format)

Users Collection

The name or ID of the collection where user's should be stored in. A document will be created with the same ID of the newly created user account.

Fields

When you create a document on Firestore, you must inform which fields and which content each will have on it's structure, in JSON format. This input allows you to set as many fields as you want.

For each field you must specify the "key" and the "value" that will be stored. For instance, you might want to store a "status" for the new user, of "active", to control access to your app. You'd need to define the "key" = "status" and the "value" = "active".

Field Types

For each key/value pair you define and provide a value on the Fields list, you must provide the same key, but with the type of the value, on the Field Types input. That allows the plugin to turn the texts being fed into the plugin into corresponding values on the JSON structure sent to Firestore.

If the number of Fields and Field Types don't match, the action will result in an error.


Returned Values

User ID

The ID of the new user.

The users phone number, that must be provided in the , which means a number without spaces and with a plus sign on front of the country code at the beginning (e.g. +14155552671).

Since a new document is being created, you can store data in it the same way it is done to any .
